The lord can't get along with this butterfly

When the imperial army arrived in Kuanzhou, Ji Xiao was already on his way back to Jiangnan with his people.It had been a month since they arrived at Wanqing Mountain Villa. At this time of March, the imperial court successfully captured Kuanzhou, captured King Kuan, and was on his way back to Beijing.

After the Demon Sect was captured a month ago, Zhou Yan endured a day and a night of torture, but in the end he couldn't resist, and revealed all the dark spots buried in the Central Plains, and now more than half of them have been eliminated by the Wulin League.As for Zhou Yan himself, he was taken to the tomb of the Lin family and knelt for nine days and nine nights before being executed.

When it comes to the removal of the Devil's Cult, the most excited is not the Wulin League, but the ordinary people who are willing to pay attention to the movements of the world.

Ever since Ji Xiao and Hua Zhuo came back, the foot of the Wanqing Mountain Villa has not stopped. The people of Qiujiang City flocked to celebrate, beating gongs and drums, wishing to invite an opera troupe to set up a stage to sing, and the enthusiastic praise was loud. Almost to the top of the mountain.As a result, Hua Zhuo has been bored in the house these days, and dare not go out at all.

It would be a hassle if you were free like this.Hua Zhuo stayed in the house for a few days, itching to see the slightly monotonous room, and finally got bored with something she shouldn't have, and secretly planned a day, and called Er Fu in...

In the past few days, Ji Xiao was busy finishing the affairs of the Demon Cult, and as the leader of the martial arts, he was so busy with constant banquets and banquets that he could not come back until Haishi every day.

When the evening was approaching his son, he had just returned to the manor, and before he stepped into the courtyard, he heard the shadow guard come to report that his wife had stayed in the study for a long time today, and she hadn't returned to her room until now.

Huazhuo would never step into a place like the study room, let alone stay there for several hours.Hearing this, Ji Xiao felt strange, so he changed his way to the study to find someone, pushed open the door, and saw Hua Zhuo was sitting at the table holding a book seriously, with a very absorbed expression, not knowing what he was reading.

Ji Xiao walked over and was about to tell him to go back to rest, but before he could open his mouth, he saw the book in Hua Zhuo's hand - the familiar rough cover, he had already read nearly half of it, and there was still a thick stack beside him, I don't know Haven't had time to watch it or have already seen it.

Ji Xiao froze.

"I came back so late today..." Hua Zhuo put down the book with a smile, her expression was the same as usual, and her tone was deliberately drawn out, "Have you had dinner yet, officer?"

Ji Xiao's expression changed again, and he looked at him strangely.

Seeing that he didn't answer, Hua Zhuo blinked and said, "Isn't it nice? Then...husband? Lover? Good brother?"

Ji Xiao's face was stiff, knowing that he might have read all those story books, and he was deliberately joking, his mood was complicated for a while: "Stop yelling."

"What's the matter?" Hua Jue couldn't help laughing, and stood up, "It's written like this in all these books, I saw you hid so much, I thought you liked it..."

Ji Xiao had a faint headache, kept silent about the script, and said calmly: "It's time, go back to sleep."

Hua Zhuo curled her lips and said, "Why do you sleep? After reading so many scripts, do you think I can still fall asleep?"

Ji Xiao's eyebrows twitched.

Hua Zhuo was determined to stay here, picked up a few books from the table, and said with a look of wanting to talk by candlelight at night, "Why don't we have a chat? Here, look at these books, it's me I think it's pretty good, the plot is well conceived, and everything is beautifully written... There are also these few books, the content is ingenious, and the writing style is quite meticulous. I also compared it carefully, and here are some bookstores that don't seem to be on the side of Qiujiang City Sell, where did you buy it? I see it here..."

"Okay!" Ji Xiao couldn't take it anymore, pulled out the few books in his hand, and said slightly angrily, "What...why are you discussing this with me?!"

Hua Zhuo's face was full of innocence, "What's the matter? Maybe you carry my hidden script on your back, so you won't allow me to talk about it?"

Ji Xiao's temples throbbed wildly.

Hua Zhuo didn't know how to hold back at all, and turned to inquire again: "When did you start saving these? Do you usually read them often? Then did you learn all the previous tricks from this? Like last time ..."

"Hua, Cheng, Yan!" Ji Xiao knew that he was doing it on purpose, couldn't bear it anymore, and gritted his teeth, "Try saying one more word!"

Ji Xiao grabbed his wrist, "Go back to sleep!"

Hua Zhuo was dragged out of the study room by him, feeling reluctant in his heart, and felt that this matter should not be passed on so hastily, so he turned the topic back and discussed: "Then why don't you talk about it first...in these titles just now, you Which do you like the most?"

"Officer? Minister? Husband? Or lover?" Hua Zhuo repeated it like an addict.

Ji Xiao heard the harsh words, and said angrily: "I don't like any of them!"

"Really?" Hua Zhuo was slightly disappointed, but unwilling to say, "Then, where is brother?"

Ji Xiao's eyebrows twitched, his eyes were full of anger, and he ignored him at all.

Hua Zhuo vaguely felt that he had caught the key, and called again: "Brother Qingyun?"

Ji Xiao dragged him into the yard with a gloomy face and silently, just as he was about to go back and teach him a lesson, when he pushed the door open, he froze in place immediately.

For a moment, he thought that he had gone to the wrong place, and his face was shocked and ugly to the extreme.

Hua Zhuo followed behind without stopping, staggered a step and bumped into his back, rubbing his forehead, poking his head out, then remembered that he hadn't mentioned anything, and suddenly said: "Oh, right, I forgot to follow him." You said... I thought this bedroom was too simple and plain from the very beginning, so I made a list yesterday and asked Er Fu to go and arrange it."

"Today I just added more than a dozen decorations and paintings, and I have to wait a few days to get the custom-made curtains and curtains. I also asked someone to change the color of the screen inside to a brighter one... oh Also, have you smelled this fragrance? I asked someone to buy it from a merchant in the Western Regions, this kind of spice is rare in the capital, what do you think?" Hua Jue carefully observed his expression.

Ji Xiao stared at the too dazzling scene in the room, took a breath, let go of his wrist, and forcibly closed his stinging eyes, secretly persuading himself not to care about a butterfly.

Seeing that he was really angry, Hua Zhuo pursed her lips and said cautiously: "Actually, there is one more thing... I also replaced that bathtub with a new one, which is twice as big as the previous one. Do you want to... try it?" try?"

Ji Xiao narrowed his eyes slightly with a cold face, and stared at him with his head tilted.

Hua Zhuo made it clear in a low voice: "I mean, the two of us, let's try?"

Ji Xiao raised his eyebrows, and the haze in his eyes really dissipated a little.

If you use this method to please, it is really bad to follow the script.

"That's what you said." Naturally, Ji Xiao would not refuse such a request, and directly asked his servants to prepare hot water, carried him behind the gaudy screen, and spent a whole night studying hard.

... Not to mention, this new bathtub is really spacious enough.

When the enthusiasm of the people subsided and there were no longer so many people around the mountain, Hua Zhuo took Tao Lin to Jiangxuelou.

Bai Yi and Han Zhou came back a month ago, and they were a little surprised to see Hua Zhuo brought a juicy child over.

Bai Yi narrowed his eyes and pointed to himself, "Let me raise it, are you sure?"

Hua Zhuo rubbed his nose, the national teacher has such a violent temper, naturally he can't raise children, but isn't there a cold boat now.Besides, it is very difficult to find another place like Jiang Xuelou in this world. Apart from here, Tao Lin has no better place to go.

Han Zhou seemed a little interested, so he called the child beside Hua Zhuo over, knelt down to look at him, and said with a smile, "What's your name?"

"Tao Lin." The child replied softly.

Hanzhou nodded.This child is only five years old now, but he was born by chance. Back then, he and Bai Yike had never had this kind of luck, and they all accumulated their cultivation base by practicing bit by bit.But it was precisely because of this that Tao Lin's accumulation was shallow and his body was unstable, so it would indeed be dangerous to stay outside alone.

Han Zhou turned his head to look at Bai Yi, "I think this child has some roots of wisdom, why don't you just stay."

Bai Yi understood what he meant, glanced at him, hummed softly and did not speak.

Han Zhou smiled at Hua Zhuo, meaning he agreed.

Hua Zhuo rolled her eyes, "Thank you very much."

Then he went over to tell Tao Lin a few words, and gave him a small pendant made of sapphire before leaving, saying that he would take him out to play when he was free.

After finishing all this, Hua Zhuo didn't stay any longer, the carriage outside was still waiting, so she went straight back to the villa.

It was rare for Ji Xiao to come back earlier this day, and he didn't see Huajuu when he entered the house. Hearing that the shadow guard said that he had gone to Jiangxue Tower, he didn't care much, and searched the house for a few secret letters he had received when he was in Kuanzhou.

It is not difficult to find a few folded letter papers, they are stacked in the bottom drawer of the wooden cabinet, Ji Xiao took them out, but his eyes were attracted by the cinnabar-colored book underneath.He couldn't see the words on it before, but now they are all clearly displayed.

He temporarily put down the letter paper in his hand, and opened the book. As Huazhu said, all the spells were recorded, and there were hundreds of spells from easy to difficult.

The last few pages of the book were obviously folded, and what was written on it was a kind of soul contract, called "Life and Death Contract".It probably means that the lives of the two people are completely tied together, so that the bonder will live and die together. Once one party dies, the other will also die. This is an extreme and extreme type of soul bond.

Ji Xiao looked at the familiar talisman on it, his eyes were dim and hard to see.

The wind blows slightly in early summer, and the scorching sun at noon makes it a bit hot. The mountains are lush and green, and the greenery that is about to drip out as far as the eye can see is a little bit cooler in comparison.

When Hua Zhuo came back, he stopped by to buy a few bags of snacks and saw Ji Xiao sorting out old letters in the house, so he leaned over and told him that the National Teacher had agreed to keep Tao Lin in Jiangxuelou.

Before he could finish speaking, Ji Xiao lowered his head and kissed his still chattering lips.

Hua Zhuo immediately stopped, looked at him with a blink of an eye, and said with a smile, "Did something good happen to you when you took the initiative today?"

Ji Xiao didn't answer, clasped his waist and pulled him to his side, delicately and gently kissed him on the lips, and then held it deeply, until the other party gasped a little, and finally let go.

"Chengyan." Ji Xiao said in a deep voice.

Hua Zhuo looked at him with misty eyes.

Ji Xiao rubbed his hair, "Tomorrow, follow me out."

Hua Zhuo didn't know what it meant, she nodded in a daze, her hand happened to touch the food bag on the table, she casually took out a hawthorn candy, and asked him: "Do you want to eat?"

Ji Xiao ignored his question that ruined the atmosphere, and pressed down the hand that was put to his mouth.

Hua Zhuo asked him, "Where are you going tomorrow?"

Ji Xiao asked back: "Do you have a place you want to go?"

Hua Zhuo smiled and said: "Yes, I want to go to the snow mountain to see the snow!"

Ji Xiao raised his eyebrows, "Say something closer."

Hua Zhuo curled her lips, "Then let's go to East Street. I won't be here for a few months. There must be new products in many stores."

The majestic leader's wife has always spent a lot of money, and she can spend thousands of taels of silver with a flick of her hand when shopping. Looking at the whole world, I am afraid that there are few families that can afford to support him like Wanqing Villa.

Ji Xiao guessed that he would say that, hooked his lips, and replied: "Okay."
